A farmer has 80 feet of wire mesh to surround a rectangular pen.
A) Express the area A of the pen as a function of x, also draw the figure of A indicating the admissible values ​​of x for this problem.
B) What are the dimensions of the maximum area pen?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A). Let the dimensions of the rectangular pen are,

Length = l

Width = x

Since, farmer has the wire measuring 80 feet to surround the the pen.

Perimeter of the pen = 80 feet

2(l + x) = 80

l + x = 40

l = 40 - x ------(1)

Area of the rectangular pen = Length × width

                                               = lx

By substituting the value of l from equation (1),

Area (A) of the pen will be modeled by the expression,

A = (40 - x)

A = 40x - x²

B). For maximum area of the pen,

Derivative of the area = 0

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=\frac{d}{dx}(40x-x^2)[/tex]

         = 40 - 2x

And (40 - 2x) = 0

x = 20

Therefore, width of the pen = 20 feet

And length of the pen = 40 - 20

                                     = 20 feet

Dimensions of the pen should be 20 feet by 20 feet.

Ethan buys a video game on sale. If the video game usually costs $60, and it was on sale for 20% off, how much did Ethan pay? Round to the nearest whole dollar.

Answers

Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.

How? This is the answer because:

If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...

1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)

2. the ratio will look like this: 39.99/100% x/20%

3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!

4 39.99 x

---------- = ----------

100 20

-price is on the top and percent on the bottom

-you would now do 39.99 times 20

-then divide by 100

5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total

6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)

A presidential candidate plans to begin her campaign by visiting the capitals in 3 of 47 states. What is the probability that she selects the route of three specific​ capitals?

Answers

Answer:

1 / 97290

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways of selecting 3 specific route capitals from 47 states can be obtained thus :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes = 47P3

Recall :

nPr = n! / (n-r)!

47P3 = 47! / (47-3)! = 47! / 44! = 97290

Hence, probability of selecting route if 3 specific capitals is = 1 / 97290

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding each number to 4 significant figures and expressing in standard notation :

(a) 102.53070,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ;

102.53070 = 102.5 (4 significant figures) = 1.025 * 10^2

(b) 656.980,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ; the value after the 4th significant value is greater than 5, it is rounded to 1 and added to the significant figure.

656.980 = 657.0 (4 significant figures) = 6.57 * 10^2

(c) 0.008543210,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.008543210 = 0.008543 (4 significant figures) = 8.543 * 10^-3

(d) 0.000257870,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.000257870 = 0.0002579 (4 significant figures) = 2.579 * 10^-4

(e) -0.0357202,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

-0.0357202 = - 0.03572 (4 significant figures) = - 3.572* 10^-2

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2

Answers

Answer:

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.

10 days:

This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]

What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Answer:

  (b)  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph shows the solution to f(x) = g(x) is x = 1.

__

We want to solve ...

  g(x) -f(x) = 0

  x^3 +2x^2 -x -2 -(-11/3x +11/3) = 0

  x^2(x +2) -1(x +2) +11/3(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor first terms by grouping

  (x^2 -1)(x +2) +11/3(x -1) = 0 . . . . .  . the difference of squares can be factored

  (x -1)(x +1)(x +2) +(x -1)(11/3) = 0 . . . . we see (x-1) is a common factor

  (x -1)(x^2 +3x +2 +11/3) = 0

The zero product rule tells us this will be true when x-1 = 0, or x = 1.

__

The discriminant of the quadratic factor is ...

The population, P(t), in millions, of a country, in year t, is given by the formula P(t) = 24 + 0.4t. What are the values of the population for t = 10, 20,
and 30?

Answers

Answer:

B. 28, 32, 36 millions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

Where,

P(t) = population in millions

t = number of years

✔️Value of the population when t = 10:

Plug in t = 10 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(10)

P(t) = 24 + 4

P(t) = 28 million

✔️Value of the population when t = 20:

Plug in t = 20 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(20)

P(t) = 24 + 8

P(t) = 32 million

✔️Value of the population when t = 30:

Plug in t = 30 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(30)

P(t) = 24 + 12

P(t) = 36 million

Hari earns Rs 4300 per month. He spends 80% from his income. How much amount does he save in a year? ​

Answers

Answer:

Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Hari earns $ 4300 per month, and he spends 80% from his income, to determine how much amount does he save in a year, the following calculation must be performed:

100 - 80 = 20

4300 x 0.20 x 12 = X

860 x 12 = X

10320 = X

Therefore, Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.

Hi there!

Point-slope form: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is a point and [tex]m[/tex] is the slope

1) Determine the slope

[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle y_2-y_1}{\displaystyle x_2-x_2}[/tex] where two given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the given points (-2, 6) and (3,-2):

[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle -2-6}{\displaystyle 3-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{\displaystyle -8}{\displaystyle 3+2}\\\\m=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]:

[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]

2) Plug in a point [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]

[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]

We're given two points, (-2, 6) and (3,-2), so there are two ways we can write this equation:

[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-(-2))\\\\y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]

Divide each side by 8

(4x+12) *8/8 = 480/8

4x+12 = 60

A market surveyor wishes to know how many energy drinks teenagers drink each week. They want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1.1. The study found that for a sample of 1027 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 5.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.327\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1027}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.9 - 0.1 = 5.8 drinks per week.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.9 + 0.1 = 6 drinks per week.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).
